National Chop Suey Day

When I think of chop suey, I think of my childhood. If I wasn't eating my French-Canadian family's version of the stuff (served over white bread, mind you), then it was at friend's homes where their parents would make a giant bathtub-sized vat of it to feed the slew of kids they were hosting.

I had originally planned on celebrating National Whiskey Sour Day today - I think everyone was expecting me to. It was one of my go-to mixed drink in my early twenties before I switched over to whiskey and cola. But, chop suey was actually a very prevalent food in my formative years, so I wanted to pay homage to it today.

Happy National Chop Suey Day!
